This week we are learning about the importance of Matariki and we are also learning the names of the 7 sisters. We have been listening to many Matariki stories and have responded to some texts to show we understand what we have read.

Next week we are going to create some amazing Matariki art.

On Wednesday Room 8 were so excited, 16 children were going to Auckland for two days. The tamariki went to visit Auckland Zoo and Kelly Tartlons. On Friday morning everyone was bursting with exciting stories of their adventures. Next week we will share these on our blog.

On another note, I was Room 16's teacher for two days. We all had so much fun from talking, listening, laughing, counting, geometry shapes, reading and writing. Chance also turned 6 on Thursday, we made him a special card. Samicia and Soraya came in from room 3 to help with the extra lovely tamariki also. Thank you for your help girls.

The star student was Edward. He received a special certificate at Fridays assembly to celebrate his amazing attitude to learning.

Well it has been a busy week. I was sick for three days this week. Rom 8 had Mrs Pearson and Whaea Liz who taught the class while I was away. Thank you so much ladies for your support.

While I was away the little gardens grew really well, We are going to re plant them on Monday in the planter boxs so we can start to attract the bees.

Swimming has started, we will be swimming on a Monday and Thursday, please ensure your child is organised with their togs, towel in a named bag.

On Friday the children did a E-astle writing sample about, why Music is more important than sport. All the tamariki did a fantastic job!! They have all made the most amazing writing progress.

Cloey has been in charge of watering the plants every day, She has taken on this role with a responsible attitude. Please be careful as its Guy Fawkes tonight!! Please keep all your animals safe. See you all next week.

This has been a busy week, Room 8 have been focusing on maintaining a positive mindset and always giving learning a go and to never give up!!

On Friday Tia wasn't happy with her cutting out so she said can I please restart!! This is a great start to changing from a fixed mindset to a growth mindset.
I felt really excited for Tia as she is now changing her attitude towards her learning.
